Isaiah 63:1. Who is this that cometh from Edom, with dyed garments from Bozrah?
Who can HE be, this mysterious personage, this friend of God’s people, this destroyer of their enemies? Who can HE be?
"Who is this that comes from Edom,
All his raiment stain’d with blood;
To the slave proclaiming freedom;
Bringing and bestowing good:
Glorious in the garb he wears,
Glorious in the spoils he bears?"
Isaiah 63:1. This that is glorious in his apparel, travelling in the greatness of his strength? I that speak in righteousness, mighty to save.
He that has come to save us is majestic in his person, but he is also mighty in his power to save. When we ask, "Who is this?" the answer comes to us, "I that speak in righteousness, mighty to save)" Listen to this, you who feel that you are great sinners, you who know that you need a mighty Saviour. Here is one able to do for you all that you need. He comes from the field of battle, from the place of conquest, where he has fought the fight on your behalf, and won for you the victory over sin, and death, and hell. Who is he?
"’Tis the Saviour, now victorious.
Traveling onward in his might;
‘Tis the Saviour, oh, how glorious To his people is the sight!
Jesus now is strong to save;
Mighty to redeem the slave."
